I had fun with Go when it launched, but haven’t played in years. What I love about it though is how many"non- traditional" gamers play it. I’ve had more than one 50+ coworker I’ve known tell me they play it often, and do no other gaming besides it. Two of my sisters also play, and they don’t play any other games. I think that’s awesome.
Pokémon go isn’t a fun game, it’s just a fomo wealth extractor. I got up to level 42 and finally cut it off
Wealth in what way? I think I gave them five pounds but that’s was it. I’ve gotten a lot more out of it than that.
It’s boring. All you do is collect digital bottlecaps.
I tried it way back when it launched, and before that, the whatever previous non-pokemon game they made. I didn’t stick to it, and today I wouldn’t touch a location tracking game with a long pole, but there was more fun in it than just collecting fake creatures or whatever. Going out for a walk and making my way to places marked on the game map was cool. I found some interesting landmarks that I had no idea about before.
I haven’t played in a while but a ton of my friends are into it, including people who normally wouldn’t be into gaming or Pokemon. I don’t totally get it but they’re doing something right
Any game that makes people actually move is good in my book.
I played when it first came out, then again around 2018. Felt like a huge waste of potential to me. Unless there’s some legal reason, I absolutely cannot comprehend why a normal pokemon battling system wasn’t included.
Unless doing something besides just reskinning their other game (Ingress?) was too much work.
